About the Standards
What are the data standards?
MMI and the Operations and Communications Standards Committee believes the current state of connectivity in the managed solutions industry does not allow for the efficient flow of data between the sponsors, investment managers, broker dealers, and custodians that service the industry. The Data Standards Committee is committed to an electronic solution to connect sponsors, investment managers, broker dealers, custodians and other industry participants in order to handle client requests more efficiently. Furthermore, the future growth of the industry may be significantly inhibited if data standards are not implemented.
What is the Operations and Communications Standards Committee?
The Operations and Communications Standards Committee as a subcommittee of the Technology and Operations Committee, is responsible for the development and release of the MMI data standards. The Committee members are dedicated individuals with a vast array of experience from trading desks and operational areas to technology, and are generally in senior management roles within their firms.
